A Lancaster woman who died Friday evening may be the latest swine flu casualty in Dallas County.
Debra Hatchel said she realized something was wrong with her daughter, 25-year-old Heather Provorse, on Sept. 21. She had a fever and a cough. Taking no chances, she took her daughter to the hospital.
'I asked the doctor, 'I said is this just the regular flu, is this swine flu, or what is this?' said Hatchel. 'And he said that he thought it was swine flu because the last few days they'd really been bombarded with a lot of people coming in with the same symptoms that I brought her in with.'
Hatchel said doctors sent Provorse home without prescription for Tamiflu.
'I even asked him, 'Are you sure she doesn't need it?' and he told me that he felt that she could go home and take Motrin and Tylenol and cough medicine, and if she did not get better to bring her back,' said Hatchel.
Provorse's condition got increasingly worse.
'Her lips were kind of a little bit purple, so I immediately called the ambulance,' Hatchel said.
on Friday, after eight days in the hospital, Provorse died"

reassures..it's ok
gives an ounce of prevention to
cure the mind and body
in thought..but
becomes the final hours left..
misinformed

who practices served credits
approved these
people's
field of study..
don't understand what this

to determine her outcome..until after..she
rushed to the hospital
from being
